Contagion isn't your average Zombie Shooter but instead takes a more realistic and different approach to the popular genre with unique characters, environments, weapons, items, and a built in system that makes every round completely unpredictable with resources, objectives, and paths ever changing.

Just posting this announcement to let you all know that we've sorted out the issues with the Official Servers so you can enjoy dedicated servers to

CE_Harvest

CE_CampWhitner

CH_CampWhitner

CX_CampWhitner

CH_UnionStation

This is but the first part of our DLC Bundle which we explained we were releasing in parts so that you can get your hands on the new content sooner rather than later. The new weapons and characters have run into sound related issues and we didn't think that excused further delays on work we could release. Flatline is nearly ready to make it's debut and you will be seeing CF_UnionStation as well as CF_CampWhitner as soon as it is ready.

There are some known bugs with all the new content being released but if you are having issues playing the game please post the following in the troubleshooting discussion so we do not miss it in a comment here-

Originally I gave this game a positive review because of it's potential and it's survival horror elements/gameplay. My friends and I had a lot of fun playing this game even with the limited number of maps/overall content.

However, I'm changing my review due to the communication between the developer and its community. The developer for this game cannot take constructive criticism. How these guys deal with this is awful. I'm not upset about the wait for the new content. I understand it's free which is great. I am upset that they deal with their customers so poorly.

A clunky zombie survival horror game with extremely delayed patches and DLC that had been promised, with numerous developers leaving the company and with a manchild developer falsely banning people from the games steam forums for expressing discontent with the games current state and the development cycle. As for the game, it is dated visually, has extremely bad movement controls, has really bad gunplay, and allows for easily exploitable maps in which most people just camp in one spot. Also, the player counts at peak times are abysmally low (lower than 50 sometimes) Avoid like the plague.

Honestly it was real fun. I loved it. Mostly because I thought there would be more content. Instead they randomly just said eh its finished. Left all the bugs too. So yah spend 20 dollars to play like 5 maybe 6 maps on a few different playlists. You'll get bored. The only updates on the news is about them going to game events like they are a big game industry. This game gets a 5/10 in my view.

This game started out really promising. Actually i quite like the idea of having another competitor to L4D2 and allow more teamwork based gameplay style. While the game could be so much fun, the reality looks different. Most people on the servers are too stupid to understand the gameplay mode, for example: taking a look on the mobile and evacuate each other together would be smooth, but no, people barricade somewhere and shoot each other or empty their ammo to be eaten in the end. Shame really. There schould be more structure and goals that pop up cleary for everyone to know. As for what it is a multiplayer only game i would not recommend it based on the ppl that are playing it right now. save your bugs and get L4D, way more fun imo
